from. the following item: Last week we
received from 81 Louis consignment

st. Louis to Ogdsa, u distance of LAB

she same goods from Ogden to Elko, a

RELIEF FOB THE PEOPLE.

to the thanks of the, people of Nevada
for casting their votes on the right side
OF the Interstate Commerce Bill. Now
thstit has passed the Senate by such
large majority, 40 to Is, we have no
fears as 10 its fate in che House. and the
people of this State may congratulate
themselves on the prospect that the
Wholesale and unjust Determinations
which have been practiced for years by
the Central Pacific Railroad, now called
the Southern Pacific Company, is ut mn
end, and that hereafter the merchants
of Elko will not be obliged to pay $500
freight on Is cur of merchandise which
would be carried 600 miles farther for
$500 less.
If the railroad can renlize profit in
carrying goods from Eastern cities to
San Francisco for $500 per car, (nnd
anyone knows that the company does
not run trains for amusement it Is n
gross outrage TO compel our people to
pay more than double for the privilege
of having the car side tracked 600 miles
short of that destination.
Happily the prospect is now very
favorable for such National Legislation
as will compel this grasping monopoly
TO treat our people with some considera-
ton i'll the matter of freights, and we
honor our Senators for the manly stan nd
they have taken in behalf of their con.
5tituents.
The following are the two most i'm
portant sections of the bill:
Section 3. That il shall be unlawful
for my common carrier subject to the
provisions of this Act to make or give
any undue or unreasonable preference
or advantage to any particular person,
company, firm, corporation or locality.
on any particular description of traffic,

any pnrtlcular person, company, firm,
corr Grafton, or locality, or any particu-
lur description of tmlic, to any undue

. Sec. 4. Tint it shall be unlawful for

visions of this Act tr charge or receive

GUIDING THE SHIPS.
A Description Of the Way in Which
the Suez Canal is Nayigated.

The number of ships in the canal at
one and the same time is something
very great, and the slightest mistake or
carelessness in sending the signals from
station to station might lead TO very
serious consequences. On the 9Th of
December last, for example, fifteen
steamers cleared the canal, of which
seven were outward bound. On the
previous day nine ships cleared, and on
the following day seven, so that during
the eighth some thirty ships were pro-
baby at one time in the canal. Some
times there are as many as forty; and
all. whether they are passing through
the narrowest cutting. whether they are
steaming, their fastest pace across the
twenty-five miles of deep water in the
great lake, or making their exit at Port
Said, are completely under the control
of the French gentleman sitting at his
desk in an upper chamber at Terreplein.
The way in which the canal is worked
from the Suez Office Is, like many other
ingenious devices. exceedingly simple. 1t
is ascribed to the local head OF the
administration, NJ. Chartrey, who
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1887-03-30

s.s ;r,mense credit, both for the
;nv 0o, "a itself and for the way in which
- Is co anni;ed to the traffic. Against the
val, an one side of the room is narrow
shelf or platform, along which runs
oronus At intervals this trough or
Groove has deep recesses and at TWO
5laces these recesses are OF larger size.
This trough or groove represents the

About forty have the English nag, ten
or dozen the French flag, ana SO on,
with other nationalities. AS the steamer
comes up and her name is known, IL Is
written on paper and placed on the TOY
boat. The whole number of ships thus
actually in the canal at any moment
can be seen at glance; and, as me
Geographic signals give notice, the toy
boats are moved along, or placed IN
siding, or shown traversipg one OF the
lakes at full speed. Signals are SENT
from the Office to the various Cares"
prescribing the siding at which each
ship must stop to let another ship meet
and pass it. The official who is on duty
keeps the models moving as he receives
notice. taking care when perhaps two
two ships going in opposite directions
are both nearing the same siding to
give timely warning to the pilots IN
charge by means of the signal. balls and
flags at each station under his control
from the Office, and to direct which of
the two is to lie up and which to pro-
coed. Barring accidents, the whole
arrangement goes like clockwork; the
clerk can read off in a moment, the
name, tonnage, nationality, draught,
and actual situation of every steamer;
he can tell what pilot she has on board.
what is her breadth of beam, what rate
she is moving at, and everything else
that has to be known about her; and is
able without an effort to govern all her
to prescribe the place where
she is to pass, the night and the hour at
which she is to get under way in the
morning, although he does not see her,
and probably never saw her in his life.
The loss of the Soudan has diminished
the trade of Suez, and in a slighter de-
gree the traffic of the canal, which has
also been affected by the state of the
market in England and the long COM
depression. Nevertheless there
are often as many as forty steamers
dotted about on different parts of NJ.
Chartrey's model, and the fees, paya-
Bile only in specie, are often enormous.
Some of the large Australian liners of
the P. & O., or the Orient service pay as
much as 1850 livres in making single
transit.

IN THE DAYS OF THE COMMUNE.
DOings of a Mob Who Invaded the
Tuileries.

A most curious event occurred at the
Palace of the Tuileries on Sunday after
noon, May 10, 1871. There was a grand
concert given there at that time under
the direction of the Communard author
ities.' The proposed "Concours' was
widely advertised in the city, and every
effort was made to have it grand sue
cess. AS its :avowed purpose was a
benefcent one, the appeal made to the
Communard population of Paris was
very strong one The attendance was
large, and great amount of money was
taken IN. The concert was advertised
for Sunday evening, but there was an
immense affair in tie garden of the TUT
leries in the afternoon. There were not
less than 10000 persons present. There
was music with it's vOluptuous sWeIl:''
the bands OF great many regiments.
and no less than 1000 musicians, pIav-
ing and singing the soulstirring Mar
seillaise. But it was in the evening that
there was. the greatest interest. The
Palace OF the Tuileries was thrown open
to the public, and the great horde of
men, women, and children went through
the gardens, and defiled through the
gorgeous and magnificent apartments OF
the palace.
Though l knew all about the concert
[ did not deem il fitting occasion to
be present myself, on Sabbath day: but
L sent one ofmy secretaries, 20 see what
was to be seen and TO report to me. He
stated that what he there beheId was
most remarkable snd interesting sight
Ten thousand people filed all the apart
ments, wandering everywhere at their
ease, and examining into eVery nook and
corner of the vast palace. The COM
ments OF the rabble were most amusing.
My secretary kept along with the crowd
eyerywhere, seeing all that was TO be
seen. and listening to all that was said.
Great interest centred in the private
apartments of the Empress. Tie COR
geous belongings were everywhere COM
mented upon by the mob. The bath
room of the Empress attracted great
attention. 1t was represented as very
handsome, and as a marvel of luxury,
beauty, and taste. II was surrounded
by heavy plate mirrors The bath was
cut out of solid marble. The ceilings
were covered with rick blue silk-veiyet.
The faucets in the bath were of solid
silver. All that was seen was described
by the Communards as evidence of the
profigacy and the luxury of the court.

LENTEN READING.
The Absurd Observations Which
Are Now in Vogue.

It is . hard philosophy which tells US
that some must die for others to live. A
much more cheer full kind is that which
whets our appetite for our cup of Mocha
and wheaton roll, as, with dim visions
of Flooding lsborers in Arabia AID
Dakota, we half unconsciously say to
ourselves that we must eat for others to
live. But this cond ton of things is
perhaps too commonplace to go under
the name of philosophy. There is,
however, a phase of the interdepend-
ence of men which sets us thinking. The
spirit Of modern pessimism proves too
much for us, and we decide that some
must be superstitious and credulous for
others to live.
Almost every housekeeper, even in
Puritan New Eng and, considers Friday
and Fishday synonymous terms. When
Lent comes, and the maid-of- ali work
goes breakfastless to early church, gives
no the use of meat, and Is unable to do
her work from physical exhaustion,
even the most liberal-minded feels
inclined to deplore the lack of common
sense in some OF the tenets of the Romlsh
Church. 1t is hard to realize that the
great nations of southern Europe should
have been obliged for centuries to sub
stitute fish for meat during certain sea-
sons, and we are wont to look upon the
custom as an arbitrary and irrational
use OF human power.
But here comes in the interdepen-
dence, and then glimmer of reason. 1t

longer geographically than it is in thrift,
honesty and industry; but the custom
which will not sanction the use of meat
by the one is a source of the others

The legend says that as no flower
could bloom, no bird sing, no grass
blade thrive, on those Arctic shores the
Lord created fish in countless numbers,
and implanted in the hearts of men an
for the sea and its barren,
rocky coast. We know that far away to
the south are the great Catholic
countries of Italy and spain, whittier
cargoes of sailed cod and herring are
sent by the hardy toilers of the polar
sea, and that the keeping of fast days
means that the gold of the orange and
lemon goes in a harder coin to the

WANTED TO MISCEGENATE.
A COlOred Man and White Woman
to be Married in Ohio.


1t has not been an unusual occurrence
for colored man to apply to the pro-
bate courtfor license to marry white
woman. Before the passage recently by
the Legislature of Ohio of the law oblit-
Grating all distinction between white
and eolored people a license was, of
curse, refused. Since then it has been
expected that there would be applica-
tons of this sort.
Wednesday, at Cincinnati, the first
man applied tor his privilege under the
law. His name was Thomas Beatty,
and the woman he wanted to marry was
Lucy Beach. Louis Hauser, the mari
age license clerk, took him to Judge
Goebel. The judge questioned him, and
it was devel ped that the man and
woman had been living together as man
and wife for SIX years. They once lived
in Evansville, Ind, and now live at the
foot OF Freeman Avenue in Cincinnati.
He said the woman was a widow. be
supposed. she had one child when he
began to live with her. He vas not
sure whether the woman 5 husband was
dead or whether she was divorced from
him. The judge told MIN he had better
make some inquiries about the matter
before he married her. He went away
to DO this.
1t was also developed in the examina-
ton OF the man thai John Richardson.
a colored man, had married q white
woman a short time ago. s reference
to the marriage license record showed
that license had been issued to Rich
ardson on the 9th of last month, He
had sworn that she was a coIored
woman. This was before the new law
was passed. The marriage was, there
fore, illegal, and the man also periured
himself.
